Product News Clean air for the work space contamination. Ideal as an individual workstation the new cabinet provides Class 100 conditions. It is suitable for applications which are non hazardous to the user such as plant tissue culture, PCR, media preparation, electronics inspection, medical device assembly and non-toxic drug preparation. Air drawn through the top of the cabinet

GRI Contract Services has introduced a new addition to its range of Labconco@ ventilation equipment. The Purifier@ Vertical Clean Bench is a ventilated cabinet designed to provide clean, particulate-free air in the work space so minimising risks of cross

passes first through a pre-filter and then a 99.99% efficient HEPA filter which removes all contaminating particles of 0.3 pm or greater. Variable. speed fans maintain the correct air velocities through the cabinet and uniform, turbulence free air flow is ensured by a diffuser located at the top of the work area. All controls are located within easy reach and a three way safety switch for models incorporating ultraviolet light allows only one light at a time to be turned on.

Sooner or later most laboratories will need a heating mantle, something that heats safely and reliably from room temperature to boiling in 4 minutes. Meeting this need, particularly where laboratory benchtop space is at a premium, is the range of heating units available from C. Gerhardt UK. Their six position heating mantle, model K126, is capable of accomodating up

It is important to be able to contain spills that inevitably occur on laboratory benchtops or similar work surfaces to the smallest possible area so as to minimize possible damage and inconvenience. With this in mind Clark Scidntific offer a practical costeffective solution to the problem with their range of disposable, re-usable spill trays. These trays contain any spills of any description whilst also

to six round bottomed flasks up to 750 ml. This unit, which is only 90 cm long, ensures maximum flexibility and efficient use of space, even in the smallest laboratory.

The lightweight trays can be simply rinsed or wiped clean for future use and then, when necessary, disposed of.

Digital photography with a microscope Olympus is the first microscope manufacturer to introduce

a digital photomicrography

system with an unprecedented price/performance ratio. The DPlO digital

colour camera has a progressive

2/3”

CCD

sensor with over 1.4 million pixels, corresponding

to a resolution

of 1280 x 1024

pixels. Every pixel of the CCD sensor is represented directly in the digital picture. This technology secures extremely sharp pictures with natural colour reproduction which can rightly be called photographs.

The DPlO

is

suitable for many applications in every area of industry, research and medicine. Circle number 7 on reader response
